CW

Short for clockwise, CW is rotation or movement of an object similar to that of the hands on a traditional clock. Beginning from the top, a circular rotation moves to the right, and from the bottom, rotation moves to the left. For instance, when inserting or tightening a screw, you would rotate the screwdriver to the right. The image shows both an example illustration of the both the clockwise and counterclockwise directions.
